Marie L. (Nagle) Frace

Marie Leone (Nagle) Frace, 85, of Mifflinville, passed away peacefully Friday, April 5, 2024 at Brookdale Bloomsburg. Born in Bloomsburg on August 27, 1938, she was a daughter to the late Clair B. and Harriet A. (Klinger) Nagle.

Marie was a graduate of Bloomsburg High School, Class of 1956. On November 2, 1957, she wed the love of her life, the late Charles R.
